The COVID-19 crisis sparked a roller coaster ride for Malaysia’s food and beverage (F&B) industry. At the peak of the global pandemic, Movement Control Orders (MCO) saw dining a restricted activity in Malaysia. While this has since loosened, the food supply chain was severely affected due to Malaysian states requiring time to fully open up. This disruption in food supply chains, coupled with other external global forces and high demand for food delivery services, meant the Malaysian F&B sector has been in a precarious economic situation, with <\/span>about 40% of SMEs that declared they might close in 2021<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

However<\/span>, if you are planning to expand your business to Malaysia or start afresh there, here are three things to take note of:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Food delivery services are here to stay<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    While COVID-19 and MCO restrictions have contributed substantially to the growth of grocery and food delivery services, this service sector is set to continue growing. Statista <\/span>reports<\/span><\/a> that revenue in the Online Food Delivery market is projected to reach US$2.10bn in 2022 and a projected market volume of US$4.46bn by 2027.<\/span><\/p>\n

    These numbers reflect the need for restaurant and cafe owners to continue offering food delivery services, even as dining-in resumes. Malaysia’s <\/span>top food delivery choice<\/span><\/a> is FoodPanda, with majority of consumers opting to order food through the platform. This is followed by GrabFood and other smaller, local players such as Beep Delivery and Air Asia.<\/span><\/p>\n

    If you’re a restaurant or cafe in Malaysia, it’s time to <\/span>switch to a smart POS that offers FoodPanda and GrabFood integration<\/span><\/a>. Instead of operating separate devices from various delivery partners, you can use one Qashier smart POS terminal to accept and manage orders, receive payments, and sync your offline and online menus, as well as <\/span>send order chits straight to your kitchen<\/span><\/a> once you\u2019ve accepted them.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. New adaptive business models: cloud kitchen<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Another rising trend in Malaysia are cloud kitchens. These are kitchen spaces without dining in areas, built to prepare meals in a central location, often with multiple restaurants concurrently operating within them. <\/span>
      \n<\/span>
      \n<\/span>A business model pioneered by Deliveroo, the shared-kitchen spaces allow chefs to cook without sustaining any rental cost of maintaining a dining area. You can see the attraction: no seated customers mean no service staff and lower electricity bills. Therefore, many F&B startups and <\/span>      even established chain stores, like KyoChon<\/span><\/a>, have adopted this innovative business model.<\/span><\/p>\n

      As a new or existing F&B owner, it may be cost-effective to consider using a <\/span>dark kitchen like the ones offered by GrabFood<\/span><\/a>. You can focus solely on maintaining the quality of your food and delivery services. Although customer loyalty primarily lies with the food company and not the delivery services they use, part of increasing customer return rate is also providing delivery services focused on quality and customer care. A cloud kitchen allows small startups the flexibility of cooking and delivering food independently, even <\/span>mobilising payments on the go with smart POS systems<\/span><\/a>. That way, it eases workforce costs.<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Increased digitalisation of businesses, including e payments<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Digitalisation includes payments with e-wallets on a mobile phone, and the competition has certainly heated up in Malaysia. Due to the convenience of touchless payments, e-payments such as GrabPay, Touch N Go, Boost and other new players have entered the market. The ease and convenience mean <\/span>it’s gaining popularity even in rural areas<\/span><\/a>. It’s crucial that F&B players also innovate and digitalise their payments, allowing people to tap and pay for their food.<\/span><\/p>\n

         <\/p>\n

        Digitalisation for F&B players<\/b><\/h5>\n

        For F&B players that want to continue growing business revenue in a challenging economy, digitalisation is inevitable. Choosing the right technology can help business owners optimise operations, use resources efficiently, and increase sales and profit. If you are planning to expand your business to Malaysia or are a local operator, you’ll need to partner with a vendor that knows the market well.<\/span><\/p>\n
